Callbox has become a powerhouse in B2B lead generation, helping businesses connect with their ideal customers through AI-driven multi-channel outreach. But how did it all begin? What fuels Callbox’s growth and innovation?
In a recent ‘Talk Podcast,’ Toni Montaya sat down with Rom Agustin, Founder and CEO of Callbox, to discuss the company’s journey, its approach to AI, and how it delivers impactful results for clients worldwide.
The Callbox Story: From an Internet Café to a Global Leader
Rom Agustin’s entrepreneurial journey started 20 years ago in an internet café in the Philippines. What began as a small operation with just one or two employees quickly became a global B2B lead generation powerhouse. The vision was simple yet ambitious: create a company where people could work from anywhere, connecting businesses with potential customers globally.
At a time when outsourcing was on the rise, Callbox set itself apart by offering more than just telemarketing services. The company focused on building scalable, data-driven marketing solutions that helped businesses reach their most valuable prospects. By integrating technology and human expertise, Callbox expanded its reach, attracting enterprise clients across different industries.
Today, Callbox operates across North America, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and EMEA, serving over 15,000 companies worldwide—including Salesforce, LinkedIn, Google, and Microsoft. This global footprint enables Callbox to help businesses break into new markets and accelerate their sales pipelines.
AI-First Approach: Transforming B2B Lead Generation
One of the most significant factors behind Callbox’s success is its AI-driven strategy. Rom highlighted how AI has revolutionized the way Callbox operates:
- Enhanced Productivity: AI automates tasks, enabling Callbox to do more with fewer people while maintaining high-quality service.
- Data Enrichment: AI processes and analyzes data faster than manual methods, ensuring more accurate targeting and lead scoring.
- Personalization at Scale: AI powers highly personalized outreach, making messaging more relevant to each prospect.
- Seamless Integration: AI is embedded in email marketing, social media strategy, and data profiling, optimizing program performance.
Unlike traditional lead generation firms that rely solely on human effort, Callbox combines AI-driven analytics with its multi-channel marketing expertise. This allows the company to generate leads and ensure they are highly qualified and ready to convert.
Callbox follows an “AI-first” mindset, continuously exploring how AI can refine and improve lead-generation efforts. This forward-thinking approach guarantees clients receive faster, smarter, and more cost-effective solutions.
The Callbox Difference: More Than Just an Outsourced Vendor
One of the standout points Rom emphasized was Callbox’s philosophy: “We treat our clients as part of our group.”
Rather than acting as an outsourced partner, Callbox works closely with its clients to customize strategies, refine messaging, and make real-time adjustments. This hands-on approach ensures that businesses receive leads and qualified, high-converting opportunities.
What makes Callbox unique is its ability to align with its clients’ sales goals. Instead of delivering generic leads, the team focuses on long-term relationship building, ensuring that each lead fits seamlessly into the client’s sales funnel. Callbox’s account-based marketing approach ensures that every program is tailored to the specific needs of high-value accounts.
With a team of dedicated marketing professionals, cutting-edge AI tools, and a deep understanding of different industries, Callbox provides an efficient, effective, and results-driven lead-generation experience.
Success in Multi-Channel Lead Generation
When asked about a favorite client success story, Rom pointed to Salesforce, one of Callbox’s notable clients. The Callbox team implemented a multi-channel outreach strategy to drive engagement and results—combining email, social media, direct calls, and webinars.
Salesforce needed to expand its presence in new markets while maintaining high engagement with potential clients. Callbox’s tailored approach involved:
- Targeted email campaigns to engage decision-makers.
- AI-driven lead scoring to prioritize high-value prospects.
- Personalized social media engagement to nurture leads.
- Direct calls & webinars to deepen relationships and accelerate conversions.
By integrating these tactics, Callbox helped Salesforce generate high-quality leads, shorten its sales cycle, and increase conversion rates. This client success story highlights Callbox’s ability to craft tailored, high-impact campaigns that deliver measurable results.

Looking ahead, Callbox aims to enhance its AI capabilities, improve predictive analytics, and expand its multi-channel strategies to drive greater value for clients.
